Collin Street Bakery, headquartered in Corsicana, Texas, is honored to stand alongside Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) to ensure that America’s injured veterans receive the life-changing programs and services they need to achieve their highest ambitions. WWP is American-based charity and veterans service organization benefiting wounded warriors who served in the military on or after September 11, 2001.

In 2022, Collin Street Bakery began selling their Military Pecan Fruitcake, a unique DeLuxe®-style Fruitcake packaged in their Armed Forces tin. Featuring hand-sketched figures of the five branches of the United States military—the Marines, Navy, Army, Air Force, and Coast Guard—this limited-edition Armed Forces tin stands as a tribute to all those who have dedicated their lives to protecting our nation. Created in honor of all our servicemen and servicewomen, upon offering this product to their customers, Collin Street Bakery pledged to use this product to support an A-rated military charity.

Honoring their pledge, Collin Street Bakery’s first donation check of $7,120.00 will be given to WWP. “Collin Street Bakery is forever grateful to the brave men and women who have served and are currently serving in our Armed Forces. We are proud to be able to contribute to an organization that provivdes financial help for veterans, “ said Collin Street Bakery, President Bob McNutt.
